# Run a node with Docker
## Environment
Ubuntu/CentOS and other systems (including Windows 10 Professional Edition, similar commands) with Docker installed, and docker is running.
## Run a node
Run the following command to run the node:
```shell
$ sudo docker run --restart=always \
--name starcoin-main \
-d -p 9880:9880 \
-v /data/starcoin/:/data/starcoin/ \
starcoin/starcoin \
/starcoin/starcoin \
-n main \
-d /data/starcoin \
--disable-metrics true \
--stratum-address 0.0.0.0 --stratum-port 9880 \
--miner-thread 0
```
> Hint:
>
> * If you don't need to start the mining pool function, you can remove -p 9880:9880, and the last parameter --stratum-address 0.0.0.0 --stratum-port 9880;
> * -n main: Specify the main network main, the test network can be changed to barnard;
> * \--miner-thread 0: The number of mining threads, which can be adjusted by yourself;
Check the running status of the node:
```
$ sudo docker ps -a

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://wiki.starcoin.movemove.org/english/get-started/run-node/docker/run-a-node-with-docker.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
